Subject:	Re: FLASH: renaming .swf and Netscape 4.7
From:	Antoine Valot

this one doesn't work: nav19991115015051.swf (renamed from nav.swf)
this does work: top19991115110653.swf (renamed from top.swf)

doesn't look illegal to me!

A copy of the file in question can be viewed at

top is the top movie
nav is the left-side buttons.

Thanks.

Antoine.
